[PATCH v2 1/6] x86/microcode/core: Move microcode_check() to cpu/microcode/core.c

[Ashok Raj]

microcode_check() is only called from microcode/core.c. Move it and make
it static to prepare for upcoming fix for false negative when checking CPU
features after a microcode update. Also move get_cpu_cap() to processor.h
for general use outside of arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.h

No functional change.

I thought we agreed not to do this:

Bah... you are correct, I should drop this one.

I'll fix it up

[PATCH v3 1/2] x86/microcode: Add a parameter to microcode_check() to store CPU capabilities

[Ashok Raj]

This is a preparation before the next patch uses this to compare CPU
capabilities after performing an update.

Add a parameter to store CPU capabilities before performing a microcode
update.

[PATCH v3 2/2] x86/microcode/core: Take a snapshot before and after applying microcode

[Ashok Raj]

The kernel caches features about each CPU's features at boot in an
x86_capability[] structure. The microcode update takes one snapshot and
compares it with the saved copy at boot.

However, the capabilities in the boot copy can be turned off as a result of
certain command line parameters or configuration restrictions. This can
cause a mismatch when comparing the values before and after the microcode
update.

microcode_check() is called after an update to report any previously
cached CPUID bits might have changed due to the update.

microcode_store_cpu_caps() basically stores the original CPU reported
values and not the OS modified values. This will avoid giving a false
warning even if no capabilities have changed.

Ignore the capabilities recorded at boot. Take a new snapshot before the
update and compare with a snapshot after the update to eliminate the false
warning.

I'll send you a clean version. Somehow this picked up an interim change and
the change to microcode_check() is not there. I remember testing but it
happened to be a different system I updated. 

I'll send something after the new years.. working during holidays isn't
efficient :-(.

[PATCH v2 3/6] x86/microcode: Display revisions only when update is successful

[Ashok Raj]

Right now, microcode loading failures and successes print the same
message "Reloading completed". This is misleading to users.

Display the updated revision number only if an update was successful.

[PATCH v2 4/6] x86/microcode/intel: Use a plain revision argument for print_ucode_rev()

[Ashok Raj]

print_ucode_rev() takes a struct ucode_cpu_info argument. The sole purpose
of it is to print the microcode revision.

The only available ucode_cpu_info always describes the currently loaded
microcode revision. After a microcode update is successful, this is the new
revision, or on failure it is the original revision.

Subsequent changes need to print both the original and new revision, but
the original version will be cached in a plain integer, which makes the
code inconsistent.

Replace the struct ucode_cpu_info argument with a plain integer which
contains the revision number and adjust the call sites accordingly.

No functional change.

[PATCH v2 5/6] x86/microcode/intel: Print old and new rev during early boot

[Ashok Raj]

Make early loading message to match late loading messages. Print
both old and new revisions.

This is helpful to know what the BIOS loaded revision is before an early
update.

New dmesg log is shown below.

microcode: early update: 0x2b000041 -> 0x2b000070 date = 2000-01-01

Cache the early BIOS revision before the microcode update and change the
print_ucode_info() so it prints both the old and new revision in the same
format as microcode_reload_late().

[PATCH v2 6/6] x86/microcode/intel: Print when early microcode loading fails

[Ashok Raj]

Currently when early microcode loading fails there is no way for the
user to know that the update failed.

Store the failed status and pass it to print_ucode_info() so that early
loading failures are captured in dmesg.
